That works too (I hate the colorful socks but whatever). You can dress it down or up. I think sportcoats should be bold and plaids/windowpanes even moreso. I love the pattern and fabric. With patch pockets I would be all over it and would wear it to work as I mentioned and more casual as you mentioned. Burnt orange cords, blue shirt and dark brown shoes would look wonderful.

I don't think it's your eyes- computer-screens come up with very different colours. The base is an olive-brown and the windowpane is dark brown, red, cream/white and blue. Maybe this one shows it better:

Thanks, that does help. I like the cloth.

what's wrong with the cut?

RGH I would buy it in a heartbeat. 40R though, not 40L and definitely not for Attolini prices, but yeah that's another must have for my wardrobe.

The pattern is not for me, but--look at those darts!

Looks great to me - I'm also interested to hear what's wrong with the cut...?

Their cut is too extreme looking for me in most cases. I am going from experience with the brand, not from the particular picture.

I'd wear it.

I'd definitely wear it (with gray flannels).

Beautiful silhouette.

It's a tad too dandified for me. Hey if you have a gall the pull it off, more power to you.

Looks like a pretty "long" long. What do you want for it?

 

[Gus]

I can't imagine me wearing it much because of the bold, high contrast pattern. There are so many great looking fabrics and jackets that would provide far more enjoyment and flexibility with my accessories.

I like it, though I may well decide that the pattern is too dramatic for me What are the measurements? What would you ask for it? You could PM the answers to my questions, if you prefer.
